Always a pleasure to see your WIP stuff. Thanks for sharing Andre! On your last newsletter, you showed how you use the perspective guides for straight lines and to make grids. It was really helpful! But how do you deal with stuff that doesn't work with the perspective rulers as well (stairs, tilted objects, etc)? Is that more intuitive for you at this point?

You can go two ways: either you eyeball it or you establish a new perspective grid, with new vanishing points etc. Digital has another advantage here, which is you can do it in another layer and avoid superimposing grids, which can be confusing. For me, if it is small, I eyeball it. If it is more complex, I'll do another grid.

Ah, yeah that makes sense to do it that way. I'll have to give it a try. Also, couldn't agree more about Mission Impossible! Rogue Nation and Fallout are my favorites but Dead Reckoning definitely didn't disappoint.

Yeah, the key is always to try things and find your way. It will always be different from mine, one way or another. And yes to MI. What a great series of movies.

What kind of printer and paper do you use? I love pencilling in CSP but really want to get back into inking traditionally again.
